Rambunctious Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Drivers who insist on driving so close they are pratically bumper to bumper even when you are doing the speed limit! Had an idiot do this to me on the way back from the match on Tuesday all the way from motorpoint to heanor. I just slow down to pee them off even more.

GboroRam Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Nothing. I've got quite laid back about driving. Someone pulls out on me, I just think the guy is lucky he pulled out on me, as I'm not an idiot and will be watching and can stop/slow down. Some things are annoying, but it's easy enough to let it slide. If they're tailgating you and it's getting annoying, give them a chance to overtake and they'll be out of your hair in 30 seconds.

GboroRam Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Yes. Absolutely. Had a small motoring incident which turned me into a pedestrian for 6 weeks, so I genuinely let things slide. Worse things in life to get upset about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had plenty of chances to overtake but unfortunatley i think some drivers like to intimidate others to make them feel the big 'un. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case I'd slow down a bit more. If he wants to intimidate me at 15 miles an hour, it'll probably not work, he'll get bored and pass me with some hand gestures for good measure. But at least he'd be out in front instead of behind me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambunctious Posted March 9, 2012 Author Share Posted March 9, 2012 Good idea but the stubborness inside me doesn't want to allow them to have the satisfaction of overtaking me.

ladyram Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Too many to list - drivers hogging the middle lane drivers who slow down without using their brakes people who drive like tw*ts and give me filthy looks even tho Dav is driving. Feck off, it's your own fault Some people who own 4x 4's. Yes, yes, we all know you own a big car, just shift over. People who use their mobiles when they're driving. It's against the law you tossers, there's never a copper about. There's loads of em comes past my kitchen window every morning using them. Drivers who like to think they can bully folk into going faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansea ram Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Most people don't like a big vehicle behind them. The amount of people that pull over for me when they see my beamer behind them is unbelievable. Also the joy i get when they slow down, and they think they annoy me, until i boot my 3.5 litre and blow past them. Bloody marvalous feeling.

ladyram Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 We used to have a beat up old VW Polo which Dav had to drive round central London in. He didn't mess about trying to get on roundabouts - he just used to point it at all the Mercs & Beamers, drive on and watch them **** themselves and either move out of the way or stop.

Trying to overtake does generally feel like driving on the wrong side of the road until you pull back in behind the car you failed to pass, sheepishly.

Dimmu Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 drivers who slow down without using their brakes Economical driving, anyone? In Finland fuel is so ridiculously expensive, that it will teach you to do some engine breaking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Don't mind slowing down without using breaks when there is an obvious reason for doing so - like a bend coming up- but it's those on straight roads who let their speed vary from 30 to 60 and back without warning or reason that boil my piss. .

GboroRam Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 If it's a 30, I'll do 30. If it's a 50, I'll do 50. If it's a 60, I'll do 60. Some people just go 50 no matter what, which amuses me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
